Clefairy -- Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Clefairy from the Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Set. Scraggy is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 60. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Clefairy does not have an Ability but it does have two moves. The first move this card has is called Pound, this move requires one colorless energy card and does 10 damage. Clefairy's second move is called Double Slap, this move requires two colorless energy cards and does 20 damage times the number of heads you get when you flip a coin.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Clefairy is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Clefable, which I'll be reviewing tomorrow, you'll more than likely want to use this card with that Pokemon. However, since I haven't reviewed that card yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolution. So on its own, Clefairy is a pretty decent starter Pokemon. It has a solid hp, and two decent moves. Because this is a colorless type card and can use any type of energy cards to attack, if you need one or two more cards to put in your deck, Clefairy is a good card to use. I would try and get Clefairy into the active Pokemon spot as early as possible in the game, and then put two energy cards on it and use Double Slap every turn, hoping for two heads of course. I would keep using Double Slap every turn unless the defending Pokemon would be knocked out by 10 damage, then you'll want to use Pound because it will for sure do 10 damage because there is not any flipping of coins involved. So I definitely would consider using this card in a deck, I wouldn't make this card a priority for any deck out there, but if you're looking for up to two cards to put into your deck, Clefairy is a good card to use.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. In my opinion, this is an average basic Pokemon card. I am giving this Clefairy card an average rating because it is just that, an average card. It is very solid nevertheless and can be used in a deck on its own without Clefable. I like that this card is colorless, so it can be used in any deck, I like that it has two moves, and I like that Double Slap has the potential to do 40 damage every turn.
